Download or read book The Art of Spiritual Direction written by Jos Moons and published by Messenger Publications. This book was released on 2020-11-14 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a concrete, practical book about spiritual accompaniment. While there may be no shortage of books on this matter, most of these books remain somewhat abstract in the way they highlight the beauty of this ministry and point out its pitfalls. This book instead resembles a toolbox with a user’s manual. In six chapters, the author presents the following tools: ‘there is no rush’, ‘listening by following’, ‘searching for the soul’, ‘going deeper’, ‘evaluating’, and ‘accompanying towards spiritual maturity’. By means of examples and case studies, he demonstrates how these tools may be used to good effect. Two introductory chapters discuss the choice for a practice-oriented book and the core values of an Ignatian approach to spiritual accompaniment. A final chapter specifically focuses on vocational discernment. New spiritual directors can learn from this book the tricks of the trade and experienced directors can be encouraged to reflect upon their own practice. Although it is written from a Roman Catholic, Jesuit background, this book may be used in a wider variety of Christian contexts.
Download or read book Call of the Kingfisher written by Nick Penny and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 2023-07-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Call of the Kingfisher is the enchanting debut from composer and wildlife recordist, Nick Penny. This love letter to a short stretch of Northamptonshire’s River Nene celebrates all the wild things that live there, especially the kingfishers. Uniquely, it comes with bonus audio content to complement the text, accessed via QR codes. Nick has walked beside the river at Oundle for four decades. But for a whole year he gave the waterway all the time it asked for. The more attention he gave it, the more he saw the kingfishers and heard their high whistling calls. Set in a lovely but little-known part of England, Call of the Kingfisher relates a year by the river, the author’s experiences there and the different people he meets. Other strands are woven around the elusive feathered protagonist: explorations of local history and landscape, from Roman and Bronze Age sites to watermills and centuries-old stone churches; visits at different times and to different places in the valley; homages to naturalists who lived nearby; forest dawns and dusks listening to the precious song of nightingales. But the background tapestry is the sights and sounds, and greens and browns, of the riverbank, shot through with the blue and orange threads of a kingfisher’s glowing feathers. As a composer and wildlife recordist, Nick has a deep interest in sounds in the natural environment. He both uses the local landscape and wildlife sounds as inspiration, and brings fresh insights into the sounds of the countryside. The book includes access to a number of high-quality birdsong recordings made alongside the River Nene - audio soundbites of nature’s riches, from kingfishers and nightingales to owls and cuckoos. This is a book about the things that can be seen and heard when we approach nature with patience and curiosity. It celebrates people who have used that focus to help preserve wildlife and pass on their knowledge to future generations. Above all, Call of the Kingfisher serves as a call to appreciate what we’ve got, wherever we are, and to use our ears as much as our eyes when we experience the natural world.
Download or read book Selected Poems Volume 2 written by Michael Nilsen and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected Poems Volume 2 is a brand-new selection of poetry, taken from over 20 years of writing. Some of the poems are personal and revelatory, including poems about angels, nightmares, inspirational dreams, surmounting adversity and meticulously described observations of the world we live in. Penned between 1993 and 2016, the book features poems from Michael’s vast oeuvre that he couldn’t fit into his first volume. The poems in this volume are also of a different tone and mood, being a little darker in places: subjects include true stories of muggings, assault, apparent demonic possession and extra-terrestrials. Since the publication of Michael’s first poetry volume, he has been continuing to write poetry with renewed enthusiasm, urged on by many inspirational sources, including: Milton, Shelley, Keats, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Blake, Hopkins, Thomas, the Bronte sisters and Dickinson – to name but a few! “I have an inveterate compulsion to vent my thoughts and feelings as a cathartic exercise. Also, I find by writing I am reaching out to other people, to alleviate the potential isolation that exists between us,” comments Michael, on the reason behind his writing.
Download or read book Blackbird Singing in the Dead of Night written by Greg Hunt and published by ReadHowYouWant. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When pastor Greg Hunt falls prey to a crisis of faith and calling, he sets out on an experiment in devotion and discovers that the journey is the destination in disguise. Dr. Greg Hunt had devoted nearly 30 years to congregational ministry, helping people experience God and find their way in life. Then came his crisis of faith and calling: He turns to God for guidance, but is unable to ''find'' God. Neither his education - a Ph.D. in theology - nor his religious involvements - senior pastor of a multi staff congregation, civically and denominationally engaged leader - could protect him against the disorienting impact of the experience. Days turned into months. Months became seasons. Seasons added up to a year, then two. He began to wonder if his faith had been delusional: Was God even real? In the midst of his struggle, he tries a sometimes desperate experiment of devotion: could he have a personal encounter with God through the redletters of Jesus, as recorded in the Gospel of Matthew? The outcome is startling, and changes his life entirely.
